This is a retelling of a contented Femdom relationship, this time told from the husband's perspective. While it can stand on its own, reading the original account, An Evening at Home, by the wife might give a fuller view.
*****************
I hurry to finish my after dinner clean up as my wife goes to freshen up and change out of her day time clothes into something more comfortable and appropriate for the rest of the evening. She is a very successful businesswoman running a marketing firm which she had founded, while I am an increasingly well known and regarded writer of mystery novels, having a dozen already published and under my belt. In the outside world, to our many friends, family, and associates, with whom we very often enjoyably socialize and entertain, we are very well liked and felt by most to be a very engaging and compatible power couple. In our home however, there is only one power. She is my Goddess, my Queen, and I am her acolyte, her serf, and neither of us would ever have it any other way.
Although my career doesn't require me to leave the house I am up every day at the crack of dawn, to first take care of my own morning necessities, and then to prepare breakfast for us both while my wife rises to take care of her own. After we eat and chat about this and that she sets out any instructions she may have for me for the day before leaving for her work as I clean up the morning mess. I then begin the four hours, usually 9 to 1, which she insists that I set aside each day for my writing, much to the appreciation of my editor and publishers even as they do not know the source, as my enforced discipline in this regard does keep me very professionally productive.
The rest of every afternoon is spent doing my household chores. I am not expected to do everything every day, but instead it is divided up to get it all done over the course of the week. Mondays are for changing the bed linens and doing all the laundry. Tuesdays are for full cleaning of the upstairs rooms, and Wednesdays for all the downstairs ones. Thursdays are for scouring and scrubbing all the bathrooms and any outside maintenance that needs to be done, and Fridays are for all the shopping, grocery and otherwise. I work extremely hard to meet my wife's exacting standards in all of these duties and am very proud that she doesn't feel the need to check on the quality of my duties all that often anymore. Still there are occasional deficiencies that are discovered that need to be dealt with. She does not believe in corporeal punishment, but I have found that her strong reproof, the withholding of certain intimacies, and much worse, her explicitly expressed disappointment, stings far worse that any cane or paddle, and is a far more effective corrective.
The last two hours before her anticipated arrival home every night I spend preparing our dinner for the evening. I still glow over her complements over our meal this night, something she rarely fails to do, but I myself also thought that the Veal Marsala tonight was especially good.
I had already wiped and scrubbed the dining table and the kitchen counters and washed and dried all the pans and plates but had not yet put them all away when I hear her return to the living room.
"Are you done yet dear?" she calls out to me.
I wince as I reply, "Almost."
